Published | Video Starts at 02:32

Taking Greenland is as unpopular as it is unnecessary. This amendment would be supported by at least 75% of the American people and a majority of the Republicans who are polled. They oppose annexing Greenland. They are wary for good reason. America has nothing to gain from taking Greenland, but we stand to lose more than anyone else. (02:32–02:42)
